Drinking water quality in Mathieu

Region: Normandie Population: 2,331 Water supplier: SAUR CENTRE NORMANDIE Latest sample: 24 June 2026
Fails the current legal limits

PFAS in drinking water

EU legal limit
<SEUIL µg/L Limit: 0.1 µg/L within limit

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (24 June 2026)

Health limit (used in Sweden)
0 µg/L the 4 most harmful PFAS (PFAS-4) · Limit: 0.004 µg/L below health limit

The four most harmful PFAS add up to 0 µg/L, below the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026.

Substances too small to measure count as 0, so the real total may be higher.

Water report for Mathieu

Official assessment

The latest official test failed at least one quality requirement.

„Les teneurs en chloridazone desphényl, chloridazone méthyl desphényl et chlorothalonil R417888 (produit de dégradation de pesticides) restent inférieures aux valeurs limites fixées dans l'arrêté préfectoral de dérogation à la limite de qualité. La valeur indicative définie pour le chlorothalonil R471811 n’est pas satisfaite. Un progr amme d'amélioration de la qualité des eaux porté par la collectivité est en cours, avec un suivi régulier de ces teneurs. Il convient de noter le caractère incrustant de l’eau (équilibre calco-carbonique inférieur à la référence de qualité). Les autres paramètres sont conformes.“

Frequently asked questions

Is tap water in Mathieu safe to drink?

The latest official test failed at least one quality requirement.

How high are PFAS levels in Mathieu's drinking water?

The total of 20 PFAS ("forever chemicals") was last measured at <SEUIL µg/L. The EU limit is 0.1 µg/L, so this water is at 0 % of the limit. (below the EU limit)

Does the water in Mathieu also meet the strictest limits in Europe?

Yes. Even against Europe's strictest limit, the health limit of 0.004 µg/L used in Sweden since 2026, the measured value of 0 µg/L stays below.

How hard is the water in Mathieu?

The water hardness in Mathieu is 36.6 °f (hard). This mainly matters for household appliances and detergent dosing, not for health.

Where does this data come from?

All values come from official publications: Hub'eau, Qualité de l'eau potable (Ministère de la Santé / OFB / BRGM). Retrieved on 28 August 2026.
